Heat Press Samples


(Sample produced by Myself)

     Looking back to the samples I did previously, I liked the idea of when I pocketed one of the samples with a print I made previously with paint inside the pocket. Although, this time I have decided to heat press it between the plastic layers to get a tight, sealed formation and also to compress some of the items inside being cut outs, paint, beads, glitter, fabric and more. I thought that this process might look quite interesting as an accessory piece or perhaps a section of a garment to represent more perspective and texture to the garment piece. I like the use of colours I have decided to use as I feel that it is beginning to look a lot happier and referring back to the documentaries I have watched about patients with dementia having their memory come back by using the creative arts and bringing out all the hopes and positivities to dementia.

     Below are some further samples I have done via the heat press, but these ones seem to use more paint and I really like the way the paint hides what is contained within the pocket or perhaps even making it harder to figure out what is inside it. I think these work really well in terms of my Final Major Project by the way some of the samples look like the brain being mentally corrupt or diseased from the inside, hence relating back to the negativity of my theme, but it something that those diagnosed have to face as there is no cure to date, but hopefully with all the work and donations put into alzheimers.org.uk, they will have something to help end it during our generation to prevent the death of millions of people a year.
